QUICK START GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the LaTrax Alias quad rotor high-performance helicopter. We know you’re excited about 

getting your new model in the air, but it’s very important that you take some time to read through this Quick Start Guide 

and the included Owner’s Manual. Both contain the instructions you will need to operate and maintain your model so 

that you can enjoy it for years to come.

Read and follow all warnings, precautions, and instructions to ensure safe operation. Failure to operate your model in a 

safe and responsible manner may result in property damage and serious injury. 

You alone are responsible for ensuring 

that all instructions and precautions are adhered to.

1. CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK

Plug the charger into a USB port. For the best charging performance, use a USB wall adapter rated at 1 amp or greater 

output. Plug the battery into the charger. Charge time is approximately 40 minutes on the 

Fast

 charge setting. Some 

computer USB ports will not support fast charging. If you experience problems, switch to the 

Normal

 charge setting. 

WARNING! It is critical to follow all instructions for safe and proper use, charging, and storage of LiPo batteries.  

See the included Owner’s Manual for more information.
